Exposed beams, the hayloft door and original carriage house doors were all retained during the conversion to residential use in 1925. A mid-1960's renovation added the large family room and picture window overlooking the lush gardens. The custom-commissioned kitchen expansion and update masterfully marries honed stone with handsome woods and stainless steel. Upstairs, find three sizable bedrooms with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and ample closet space, along with two lovely updated full baths. A sensational fenced garden is hardscaped in Bluestone, and surrounded by mature hydrangeas and ferns. One-car detached garage. A rare jewel of a house, just steps away from the heart of Chestnut Hill.
